Hello, Caleb!!
Yesterday, I visited my friends' house. At first, we intended to study for examination and write some reports. But after a while, we stop studying and start to talk about our future.
My friend, Erena has a dream of becoming a doctor. Therefore she is majoring medical science in her university. On the other hand, I don't have any dreams. The reason why I chose the department of English literature is that I just like English. Although I don't have decided my dream yet, I think that I want to get a job which uses English in some way. So yesterday, I noticed that all I have to do now is to improve my English skill. I felt so good to talk with Erena yesterday.

I want to go on a trip to Indonesia. The reason why I want go there is that I had lived in Indonesia for six years and I had a very good experience there. And also, I want to go shopping because in Indonesia, price is so cheap. Therefore, I would like to go to Indonesia.
I want to go to Indonesia solo, or with a couple friends. And I will travel on a shoe-string budget because the price of Indonesia is so cheap. Then I want to travel spontaneously, so I will not make any plans!!

>>Hotel
When looking for a hotel, I prefer good value, nice atmosphere & design and nice hotel facilities.
Also, I choose a hotel which is luxurious suites, with 5-star restaurants and shopping.
A good hotel whose name is Hotel Mulia Senayan
Three good points of this hotel are...
・genuinely friendly service as opposed to the mechanical
・well furnished room, functional bath room, great breakfast buffet and excellent pool and gym
・good location for business meeting
A bad hotel whose name is Sheraton Media Hotel and Towers
Three bad points of this hotel are...
・too far from Jakarta city center
・old rooms literally stink
・some of the rooms smell like they have had a dead rat in there
09/ 01 - 09/ 05
JW Marriott Hotel Jakarta: $220 per night
It is an amazing experience, royal treatment, delicious food, spacious rooms, courteous staff, great facilities and the list goes on and on. The architecture of the hotel is amazing and a blend of modern art and contemporary style which resonates the culture of Indonesia to a great extent.
>>Sightseeing destinations
Batik Keris: Batik is a name of Indonesian traditional cloth which has unique design. The shop, Batik Keris is everywhere in Indonesia. They have good quality clothes, furnishings and gifts.
These goods must be nice souvenir.
Pulau Seribu: Pulau Seribe can paraphrases Thousand Islands in English. The ocean is very clear and beautiful. Moreover the atomosphere of whole of the islnads relaxes me. If I go to Pulau Seribu, I can spend a good time surely.
National Monument (MONAS): MONAS is the national monument of Indonesia. From there, I can see Jakarta city from the high. Because it is famous for one of sightseeing spots, it is always quite crowded with so many people.
>>Advices and Tips for your Safety
In Indonesia, the order is bad, so I must always protect myself from any dangers. For example, pickpocket and robbery and so on. Moreover if I want to go outside, I must use a car or taxi. Remember not to walk outside. In addition, I cannot drink water of waterworks in Indonesia. So I think that I should buy some PET bottles of water.

Fireworks in Minatomirai
Hello, Caleb!!
On last Sunday, I went to see the fireworks in Minatomirai with the members of broadcasting circle. At first, we gathered at Sakuragicho station as a rendezvous. Because the station was full of people, it was hard for us to meet each other. All of girls wore Yukata. Of course, I also wore it. Then we moved to Akarenga Soko Mae from the station. There were many stands, so we bought food and drinks there. When the fireworks started to be shot off, we saw it as we enjoyed eating, drinking and talking. I was impressed because the fireworks were so beautiful.
This became a good memory for me. I want to see the fireworks next summer with wearing Yukata again!!

New Basketball Circle!!
Hello, Caleb!!
Now, I belong to broadcasting circle. One of my friends who is also a member of the circle formed a new basketball circle recently. Because I was invited to the circle from him, I decided to join the circle. But I have hardly ever played basketball and I am not good at playing it. Therefore I often wondered if it is ok that I am a member of the basketball circle.
Yesterday, I have dinner with members of basketball circle. we introduced ourselves each other and enjoyed talking with as we eating delicious food. Everyone was very nice person so I felt that it was good for me to belong to the circle. Through the activity of the circle, I hope to get along with all of members more!! Of course, I will also do my best to improve my basketball skill!!
